Summary: Graffiti and street art have been at the heart of many groundbreaking visual subcultures for the past thirty years. However, a new wave of artists are moving in fresh directions. Frustrated by wholesale corporate theft of street creativity, these artists are employing different techniques in their work, different materials, different means of dissemination and different ways of getting their work noticed. Often using new materials: fly-tipped rubbish, street signs, childrens toys, chalk, vinyl, perspex - these artists are subverting the three dimensional streetscape to shock educate and entertain.
